Exciting events are right around the corner, CALLING ALL BUILDERS!

The time of year Arizona residents look forward to is right around the corner. Monsoon season has ended and the mornings and evening are cooling down. As the weather changes and we spend more time outdoors numerous events, fairs and festivals will abound.

Two events on the horizon are Wicked and Wild West days, both in Cave Creek. Triple R will have a huge presence in both events, which will help increase their exposure and raise much needed funds. To make this happen they need your help

The first event is Cave Creek Wicked on Saturday, Oct. 27. They will have a horse costume contest in the morning, an all day haunted maze and several other small activities that have yet to be determined.

How can you help? First, they need builders and handymen/women.

Calling All Builders!!
